Letting go of the things that are not serving you or adding joy to your world is one of the most powerful ways to improve your emotional wellbeing and happiness levels. Although I am a huge believer in the concept of loosening your grip on life and surrendering more than holding on tight, there are definitely some things in life worth holding onto.
It has taken me many years, lots of practice and a certain degree of discipline to refine the art of letting go. It can sometimes feel as though our natural instinct is to hold onto things, and with age and wisdom comes the ability to work out what is not actually meant for us. Herein lies the magic of learning to let go of those things and creating the space and freedom for what is meant for you.
There are some things in life that you may want to hold onto, even this can be done gently and without force. The concept of gentleness is not about taking away your power. There is power in the flow of life. A gentle approach does not mean that you are weak, I would like to think that I am a gentle warrior in many ways. I will fight as a Mother, for the safety and wellbeing of my child, I will speak up for what I believe in. I am also kind and gentle in my nature these days.
